Not since David Miller left office has a progressive candidate stood a better chance of winning, says a political science professor.
And then there’s the waterfront. While Miller’s campaign made headlines for his opposition to island airport expansion, several centre-left candidates have turned Ford’s plans for a privately owned spa at Ontario Place into a larger battle over a publicly accessible waterfront.
“The lesson for progressives is that they need to figure out how to broaden their appeal without sacrificing their principles that they hold dear,” Taylor said.Deepening inequality, political polarization and the provincial government’s intrusion in city politics are standout issues for this campaign, said first-term Councillor Alejandra Bravo, who is part of council’s progressive wing.
A progressive candidate needs to commit to majority rule at City Hall and reject strong mayor powers, Bravo said.
